The neutral scalars of type-II 2HDM+S under the LHC

The 2HDM+S is a singlet extension of the Two-Higgs-Doublet Model (2HDM), which offers rich collider phenomenology. In this paper, we parametrize the 2HDM+S with the Higgs masses and mixing angles, which provide a model-independent framework to study the collider signature. Under five benchmark scenarios, we obtain the 95\% C.L. exclusion regions in the Type-II 2HDM+S parameter space by incorporating the SM-like 125~GeV Higgs precision measurements, beyond the Standard Model Higgs direct searches, $Z$-pole precision measurements and $B$-physics observables. We present the results in the Higgs boson masses vs $\tan\beta$, Higgs boson masses vs mixing angles, $\tan\beta$ vs mixing angles and doublet Higgs boson masses vs singlet Higgs boson mass parameter space. We explore the complementarity between direct and indirect Higgs searches, as well as conventional Higgs search channels and exotic Higgs search channels. Compared to the 2HDM scenarios, we find that exotic channels such as $A/H \rightarrow Z h_S/ZA_S$ can probe large part of the parameter spaces, especially for moderate $1<\tan\beta<7$ region where the conventional channels in the 2HDM cannot contribute much.

The electroweak precision constraints of the 2HDM+S

The 2HDM+S is the singlet extension of the Two-Higgs-Doublets Model (2HDM). The singlet field and its mixing with the 2HDM Higgs sector lead to new contributions to the electroweak precision observables, in particular, the oblique parameters. In this paper, we identify five benchmark cases, where at most one mixing angle is nonzero and analyze the 95% C.L. allowed parameter space by the oblique parameters. In the alignment limit of the 2HDM, we find that other than the usual mass relations of $m_H\sim m_{H^\pm}$ or $m_A\sim m_{H^\pm}$, electroweak precision measurements also impose an upper limit on the neutral Higgs masses. In the cases with nonzero singlet mixing with the 2HDM Higgses $H$ or $A$, we find approximate mass relations of $c^2_{\alpha_{HS}} m_{H} + s^2_{\alpha_{HS}}m_{h_S} = m_{H^\pm}$ or $c^2_{\alpha_{AS}} m_{A} + s^2_{\alpha_{AS}}m_{A_S} = m_{H^\pm}$. Those relations are universal to the 2HDM+S models, with or without further symmetry assumption. We also study the non-alignment limit of the 2HDM+S, which typically has tighter constraints on the masses and mixing angles. At the end, we examine the complementarity between the electroweak precision analyses and the Higgs coupling precision measurements.

Charged Higgs Search in 2HDM

In this paper, we present a comprehensive study of the collider search limits on the charged Higgses in the four types of Two Higgs Double Models (2HDM). In addition to constraints from flavor physics measurements, we include both the LEP charged Higgs search channels, as well as the LHC search results on the light and heavy charged Higgses. We consider both the conventional charged Higgs search channels of $H^\pm \rightarrow \tau\nu, cs, cb, tb$, and the latest search results on the exotic decay channels $H^\pm \rightarrow A W^\pm / H W^\pm$. We find that $H^\pm \rightarrow A W^\pm / H W^\pm$ are complementary to the conventional fermionic channels for $m_{H^\pm} < m_t$. For heavy $H^\pm$, $H^\pm \rightarrow A W^\pm / H W^\pm$ extend the reach of $\tan \beta$ beyond that of $H^\pm \to tb$ in the Type-L 2HDM. We also present the combined reach of all the neutral and charged Higgs searches.
